I tryed all things that u told me to try smarteyeball but nothing worked. I found out that in "My games" under fallout3 folder i only had the "FALLOUT.INI" and from some of the reaserch that i have been doing i should also have a " FALLOUTPREFS.INI" but i dont have this file. I no that this file is supose to have all my preferences in it so i thought if someone gave me their "FALLOUTPREFS.INI" i could edit it to my preferences. If some is going to give me that file it would be nice if you u have a Nvidia card in the 9 series.

Yes it is a vaild version of the game and yes i am running other games like counterstrike source and i do have all the users allowed to all. But i dont do if it is patched or unpatched and if unpatched and that the problem how do i fix that.

Hey everone i'm happy to say i finaly got fallout3 working, it happened to be the patch suggestion from you smarteyeball that did ended up doing the trick. For anyone who seems to be having the error of "The FalloutLauncer.exe has stoped working" when trying to launch fallout 3 look for the patch "Fallout3_v1.1.0.35_English_US.exe" Fallouts site. I have to say i almost gave up after trying everything like chageing the compatiblity, moving the path of were it installs ect.. but i have to say this fourm was a huge help in working with me to find find my problems, especially you smarteyeball. Well Thanx alot and now im going to go play my favorite game.

I thought I'd just say that when I was running fallout 3 on XP i was having considerable problems with freezes and blue screens every 20 minutes. But now that I am running Windows 7 64Bit, it runs like a dream on my XFX 9600 GT. My fps is up considerably and I havent had a single freeze so far so i've been able to get on and finally enjoy playing this great game.

Performance was just as good as Vista, which impressed me, since Vista back in its Beta 1 days had inferior gaming performance when compared to XP. However I did not go through the process of installing the game. I just upgraded my Vista SP1 installation with Windows 7 and everything was transferred over. The only program that did not work was Daemon Tools.
